Ok so it will piss into your passengers lap then.
can you not do it with somesort of float switch or sensor in the pipe so it brings on a light on the dash maybe??

Dont know that i would work, because the water in the tanks always splashing about, just like when you hit a bit of chop, some of the water will come out the over flow in the tank if its near full, so the light would just be flashing all the time.
Cheers dude my dad made the dash plate so that he diddnt have to cut a big slot out for the 5 connectors in the back of the digatron...Kinda how you mounted yours so there below below but ours fixes into the dash plate aswell.
Ive gotta put a switch another switch today which is going to go the same place as the fuel mixture switch but on the other side, it will be for the water temp gauge,thats the one that comes on most engines, except we have fitted another one to the other bank so the switch will select which bank is displayed on the gauge.

4 switches now! and not 1 for a bilge pump !

1 to change fuel mixture from ecu controlled(when you cant be arsed) changed to manual when you want max performance
1 switch changes left to right bank on the water temp gauge.
1 that controlls stereo/amp
1 that switches all the (red)gauge lights on/off (except the trim/jack position led, they come on with the ignition)
